By: Shree Thomas There is much greatness in this little single (it plays out approximately three minutes long - first-time listeners will almost certainly hit 'repeat' twice or three times). There is something of a Mike Jackson feel, and something of Shakespeare, too, and not merely because the James-Calhoun directed video closes with a quote from "Romeo and Juliet," either. Rob Bess is not just a master of rhyme and meter, but also of alliteration, repetition, assonance, and other such techniques - let lesser poets look the terms up themselves. His breathless yet commanding, hushed yet arresting style lies somewhere between the heart of Chet Baker (http://top40- Rob Bess' bio says his "evolution has taken him down some dark roads and through some rough places to, as we say, 'find himself.' But with this new offering he has realized his place in the universe, has planted his feet, and is ready to grow. This album is full of consciousness, passion, and emotionally driven content that will make you lend an ear to what Bess is trying to convey." At the very least it must be presumed that Bess is trying to convey some exceptionally orchestrated and phenomenally well-written music. Lending an ear to that will prove edifying to even the most jaded music listener. As his bio also boldly states, "Rob Bess has arrived." www.youtube.com/ mrrobbess@yahoo.com End
